i had the pleasure to hold in my hands the new xda2 for a few seconds this week.
I noticed that o2 totally redesigned the today screen of windows mobile 2003. Very nice! larger icons in the center of the screen, not only the start drop down menu. a bit like a palm. anyone seen that version arround here?

oh, and btw:

this is what else i liked:
-great screen, much more vibrant and sharp
-seems to be a bit lighter
-and of course no antena
- pictures from the camera look decent
- SD/IO slot on top seems like a good place instead of the bottom. I wont drop my sd card again this way :-)

downs, if any
it's a bit thicker than the old one..so it wont look any better in your pants' pockets.

odd all the pictures i've seen of the mda2 and xda2 looked as if they had the SD connector in the buttom

have anyone any screenshots of this new interface?

I'm really really interest, because I work up and research for more useful Today Screen.

Some of my concept is here:

where is the new interface?

I just read:
http://216.239.37.104/search?q=cache:DZlfNV4Z2e8J:msmobiles.com/article.php/54.html+&hl=en&ie=UTF-8

and there is no such an interface style.

That article is about an MDA-II from T-mobile, while in the originator of this thread talked about an XDA-II from O2.

Maybe it's an extra from O2 ?

GrTz !

When did we ever get something extra from O2... ? They will not even release WM2003 for XDA in Asia... Not that I want their version on my XDA. XDA Developers & Jeff has seem to it that we don't need them... Frankly, much as I'm tempted for this new phone I think I will try and resist just to protest O2's decision on WM2003 upgrade for XDA.

Wow! Hold your horses! I was just trying to suggest that the GUI might have some O2 customization and the mentioned URL shows pictures of the T-Mobile model, not the O2 model.

I hold nothing against any particular provider: they all have found their own unique and distinctive way to screw us :D

I do know a few things here for sure:

- the SDIO slot is at the top, NOT the bottom!
- there will be some kind of O2 menu, maybe the same as their new mobiles?
- definitely has bluetooth built in
- supports WLAN via SDIO
- same connector in bottom, but different charger, so not all cables and accessories will work 100% between models i think

Looks very, very good - I have also had a brief play with one.
